4th
INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON MODEL & DATA ENGINEERING
(MEDI
2014)
Lordos
Beach Hotel, Larnaca, Cyprus
24-26
September, 2014
The
main objective of the conference is to provide a forum for the
dissemination of
research
accomplishments and to promote the interaction
and
collaboration of research communities issued from modelling and
system
modelling
on the one hand and data and data modelling on the other hand.
MEDI
2014 provides an international infrastructure for the
presentation of
research
results and experimentations on models and data theory,
development of
advanced
technologies related to models and data and their
advanced
applications and case studies. This international scientific
event,
initiated
by researchers from Euro-Mediterranean countries, aims also at
promoting
the creation of north-south scientific networks, projects and
faculty/student
exchanges and of other parts of the world as well.
Keynote Speakers

Submission Guidelines and
Instructions
Authors
are invited to submit research and application papers
representing
original,
previously unpublished work. Papers should be submitted in PDF
or
Word
format. Submissions must conform to Springer's LNCS format and
should
not
exceed 12 pages (including all text, figures, references and
appendices).
Authors
who want to buy extra pages may submit a paper up to 15 pages
with
the
indication that the authors will purchase extra pages if the
paper is
accepted.
Submissions which do not conform to the LNCS format and/or which
do
exceed 12 pages (or up to 15 pages with the extra page purchase
commitment)
will be rejected without reviews. Submitted papers will be
carefully
evaluated based on originality, significance, technical
soundness, and
clarity
of exposition. All accepted papers will be published in Lecture
Notes in
Computer
Science (LNCS) by Springer-Verlag. Duplicate submissions are not
allowed.
A submission is considered to be a duplicate submission if it
is
submitted
to other conferences/workshops/journals or it has been already
accepted
to be published in other conferences/workshops/journals.
Duplicate
submissions
thus will be automatically rejected without reviews. Submissions
require
explicit consent from all listed authors.
